Ten Premier League clubs, including West Ham United and Arsenal, will take part in the League Cup Round of 16 this week. The Hammers and Gunners will face off on Wednesday, October 11th.
Arsenal beat fellow Premier League side Brentford 1-0 in the third round of the League Cup at the end of September, while West Ham eased past third-tier Lincoln City thanks to the only goal of the game, scored by Tomas Suczek.
West Ham United have made a disappointing start to their Premier League campaign, winning just one of their last six league games. Their only win came against Sheffield United, who are the last unbeaten team in the Premier League.
On the other hand, Arsenal is one of the two remaining unbeaten teams in the Premier League, alongside leaders Tottenham Hotspur. In their last match, Arsenal thrashed Sheffield United 5-0, with Eddie Nketiah scoring a hat-trick in place of the injured Gabriel Jesus.
The match between West Ham United and Arsenal is expected to be an evenly matched and exciting game. Both teams have strong squads and are capable of winning on any given day.
